Brisbane is going into a strict lockdown for three days over the weekend as health authorities race to track down everyone who came into contact a confirmed case of the highly-infectious UK strain of the CCP virus, which causes the COVID-19 disease.
Queensland’s Chief Health Officer Jeannette Young said the government learned at 4 p.m. on Thursday that a cleaner who worked at the quarantine Hotel Grand Chancellor and tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday, has contacted the more infectious UK strain.
